LA Times Faces its readers
Opinion LA's online discussion really demonstrates the mood in this country against Mexican nationalists/reconquistas and illegal immigrants. Here are some choice comments:
- If the US Selective Service law states that all males between 18 and 26 must register for the draft within 30 days of turning 18 or being in this country illegal or not,punishable by a $250,000 fine and 5 years in jail and they haven't so done, then that is another violation of the US LAW and that man should not be eligible for US Citizenship and should go home!
- Big deal, a bunch of children immigrants skip another day of school. Go home.
- Mexico is the biggest coyote. It does nothing to improve the living conditions of it's people. The US needs to stop sending aid and start billing them for the services we provide for their citizens.
- I canceled my gardener this week.I'll do it myself from now on or find a kid in the neighborhood.I will make a consious effort from now on to pay money for sevices to LEGAL residents and I suggest that eveyone does the same.I also suggest to close all accounts with banks that encourage illigal immigration such as wells fargo and B of A.WE NEED TO BE HEARD! Get off your couches and turn off the video games and let's save OUR country!
- if it was not for the mexican i bet half of you would nhot work what we work plus i don't think you would work for low wage and are people do you guys don't understand why is it only the mexican that bush want out of the united state and plus why is it on the bill its said united we stand that mean everyone that live here that even mean for our people
Notice how wrong the last person is (I give him credit for knowing some English)...Bush does NOT want to throw anyone out and that's why we are upset with Bush. Bush wants to condone illegal behavior because of business interests and because he wants the Republicans to get latino votes. But his mistake is typical; he assumes its all Bush's fault whether it is true or not.

One upsetting thing is that the Deans & Hillarys only care about this insofar as they can use it to suck up to Hispanic voters. And they may succeed

That first person makes an interesting point. But here's the other side. Four years in the military and you can be a US citizen, no questions asked. That means your wife and kids get citizenship, too. These people don't want it bad enough to earn it.

I could make alot of money advertising my taxi as American Citizen taxi.
It would be funny to see the idiots who don't recognize me as first generation American just because I'm white.
